Sentence examples for a simple soil from inspiring English sources

Thermal treatment and smouldering remediation were carried out on silica sand used here as a simple soil.

The main objective of this paper is the presentation of results of several experiments focused on determining adequate temperature compensation for a simple soil moisture measurement and registration system based on resistivity measurements (Wenner compensation).

The Beerkan Estimation of Soil Transfer parameters (BEST) procedure is attractive for a simple soil hydraulic characterization but testing the ability of this procedure to estimate soil properties is necessary.

We examined the feasibility of using runoff and drainage output of a simple soil-vegetation-atmosphere (SVAT) model as a predictor of monthly and daily changes in measured stream flow.

For example, since detailed models of soil-water physics have been built and tested (e.g. Ritchie 1972; Connolly et al. 2002; Suleiman and Ritchie 2003; Stewart et al. 2006), basing a crop growth model on a simpler soil-water model (e.g. Probert et al. 1998; Oliver et al. 2009) instead of the more complex model may reduce its credibility.

This, in part, is due to the fact that soil C is not uniformly distributed through the soil depth profile and most current landscape level predictions of C do not adequately account the vertical distribution of soil C. In this study, we apply a method based on simple soil specific depth functions to map the soil C stock in three-dimensions at landscape scale.

Agricultural waste such as rice hulls, coir, sawdust, and compost as growing media has been proved as an important substitute of simple soil for ornamental plant production (Younis et al. 2007; Wilson et al. 2009; Tariq et al. 2012) including gerbera.

However, a prediction of scale factors from simple soil properties was only partly successful and needs further research efforts.

The cause of this discrepancy may lie in the low dimension of the hydrological modeling; here, we have supposed a simple vertical soil water flow (Eq. (5)) and two- or three-dimensional modeling of the water flow (e.g., Kazama and Okubo, 2009) would match the observed gravity including the annual component, with a higher accuracy.

A generalized time-domain method for soil structure interaction analysis is developed, based upon an extension of the work of the domain reduction method of Bielak et al. The methodology is combined with the use of a simple hysteretic soil model based upon the Ramberg Osgood formulation and applied to a notional Small Modular Reactor.

DUP uses the wind speed dependent components of a widely used dust uplift parameterization [ Marticorena and Bergametti, 1995] but assumes a simple idealized soil with a single, constant threshold value Ut.
